New! Vulnerability Priority Rating (VPR)
Tenable calculates a dynamic VPR for every vulnerability. VPR combines vulnerability information with threat intelligence and machine learning algorithms to predict which vulnerabilities are most likely to be exploited in attacks. Read more about what VPR is and how it's different from CVSS.

Synopsis
The remote Mandriva Linux host is missing a security update.
Description
Updated unzip package fix security vulnerabilities :
The unzip command line tool is affected by heap-based buffer overflows within the CRC32 verification (CVE-2014-8139), the test_compr_eb() (CVE-2014-8140) and the getZip64Data() (CVE-2014-8141) functions. The input errors may result in in arbitrary code execution. A specially crafted zip file, passed to the command unzip -t, can be used to trigger the vulnerability.
OOB access (both read and write) issues also exist in test_compr_eb() that can result in application crash or other unspecified impact. A specially crafted zip file, passed to the command unzip -t, can be used to trigger the issues.
Solution
Update the affected unzip package.
